Abstract
The invention relates to a method and ethernet physical layer device for detecting, classifying and localizing cable faults of an ethernet physical cable, particularly an automotive ethernet PHY, using a time domain reflectometry algorithm, using a hybrid mode for selectively subtracting sent signals from received signals for fault detection and classification and considering send and received signals during fault localization.
